I don't know about any of you folks, but to me, about halfway through Season 6 I noticed a HUGE improvement in the quality of episodes. It could have just been my mood at the time, but from around Reese's Apartment to Malcolm's Car, I don't think I can say that a single episode got more than a slight grin from me in terms of quality of story/comedy. I literally said to myself, "Wow. MitM is awesome again!" upon watching Dewey's Opera or Living Will. Was there some major switch of writers or execs that occured around the production of these episodes? Normally I would attribute this to myself, but I was literally getting bored with MitM that was NEW to me until I got halfway through S6.
